Blending Brush border idea with Artfully Layered; so pretty!


I created these pretty cards on last week's FB Live video.  I LOVE the colors and style; they're so my style!  

I chose to play with the Artfully Layered bundle seen here in colors of Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green.  Having a lot of 'white space' makes the textures & pretty leaves the clear star of the card. 

I used a blending brush to blend the two inks on a piece of White card stock and then cut the leaf die-cut from that.  

For the multi-colored border underneath I used the blending brush to add the same colors.  I love the effect!  

The cross-hatch texture is made with the dies in the bundle.  There are two of them in the set that give textures. 

I also used the Faux Sea Glass shapes for accents.  

The measurements are in the post below but here they are again: 

  • White card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”
  • White 3 ½” X 4 ¾”, sponged layer 3 ¾” X 5”

Click on the photo below to watch the video; it's the first project of three.  And be sure to follow me on Facebook here.

  • 3 new kits by Stampin’ Up! now available in the store


    Stampin' Up! released 3 new kits in their substantial Kit Collection this month.  Two are cards and one is a beautiful bouquet of paper flowers.  

    You can find each of these kits and many more on this link.  Even though I am an experienced crafter I love working with kits.  It's a lovely break from thinking and planning.  But if I want to be creative I can still jazz up the kits. 

    My favorite is the Paper Bouquet kit.  I ordered two – one for my daughter for Mother's Day.  What a perfect gift!

  • A beautiful card with Thankful Garden bundle & masks – with lots of tips in the video!


    Today I'm sharing the cards we made at my March card clubs.  I also shared it in last week's video. 

    I featured the Thankful Garden bundle from our Online Exclusives.  This bundle includes a stamp set, coordinating dies and the set of 5 masks.  Click here to see it online.  

    I shared quite a few helpful tips on using these masks in the video here.  Using them with our Blending Brushes truly makes you feel like an artist!  You get the multi-colored & layered effect so easily. 

    The greetings here are from the Unbounded Love stamp set.  My colors include Fresh Freesia, Black, Lemon Lime Twist and Balmy Blue.  

    Can you notice the 4 differences between the cards below?  Which one is your favorite? 

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another neat fun fold layout.
